Engine immobiliser
The SIM 32 computer manages an engine immobiliser program:
–The Verlog 4 type immobiliser function is managed by the UCH computer and the engine management computer.
Before any customer request, the engine management computer and UCH exchange authentication frames via the
multiplex network to determine whether or not to start the engine.
After more than five consecutive failed authentication attempts, the engine management computer goes into
protection (antiscanning) mode and no longer tries to authenticate the UCH. It only leaves this mode when the
following sequence of operations is carried out:
–the ignition is left on for at least 60 seconds,
–the signal is cut off,
–the injection computer self-supply cuts out when it should (the time varies according to engine temperature).
After this, only one authentication attempt is allowed. If this fails again, repeat the sequence of operations described
above.
If the engine management computer still fails to unlock, contact the Techline.
Impact detected
If an impacthas been stored by the injection computer (ET077 Impactdetected), switch off the ignition for10 seconds,
thenswitch it back on so that the e ngine can b e started. Then clear the faults using commandRZ0 01 Fault memory.
Fuel supply
Fuel is supplied by the fuel pump. It is controlled each time the ignition is switched on, for 1 second, to provide a
certain pressure level in the circuit, and thereby achieve correct engine starting, particularly if the vehicle has not
been used for a long time. When the engine is running, the fuel pump relay is always controlled.
Injection
The injectors are controlled according to several modes. The engine is started in "semi-full group" mode (injectors
1 and 4, then injectors 2 and 3 simultaneously). This is to ensure correct engine starting whether or not it is correctly
phased, then it enters sequential mode.
It can sometimes, though rarely, happen that the engine starts when incorrectly phased. Then, after it has changed
to sequential injection mode and as long as the cylinder 1 recognition program has not taken place, the injectors are
offset by two cylinders: injection occurs in 4-2-1-3 order instead of the expected 1-3-4-2.
Injection timing is continuously calculated. It can be zero in the event of cut-off whilst decelerating or overrevving for
example.
Engine phasing
SIM 32 D4F 764 injection systems are equipped with a delayed continuous inlet camshaft dephaser.
The injection receives the position of the camshaft dephaser given by the camshaft sensor signal.
This position does not recognise whether the camshaft dephaser is in defect mode or not.
There are two types of defect mode associated with the various types of camshaft dephaser faults:

The dephaser is controlled at the lower stop and the camshaft angle measurement is forced to 0.

FAULT: this defect mode covers all faults that affect the dephaser (pulley and solenoid valve).
The dephaser is set to the low stop.
Electrical fault finding on the solenoid valve.
Dephaser position fault finding procedure.
This type groups together all faults affecting the measuring of the camshaft dephaser position.
●tooth signal fault
●tooth/camshaft signal consistency fault finding procedure
The VVT is controlled at the lower stop and the camshaft angle measurement is forced to the requested setpoint.
A first program called Memo phasing is applied to phase the engine management on starting according to the data
recorded at the last setting. It is therefore essential to wait until the end of the "powerlatch" phase (computer self-
supply phase enabling data to be saved which lasts for approximately 30 seconds) before starting any operations.
Then, a second program confirms the first decision. It is based on torque analysis.
Air supply
The idle speed regulator performs all of the calculations required for physical control of the idle speed actuator: the
motorised throttle. The functional component of the regulator is adaptive (variation programming and ageing).
If the idle speed regulation conditions are met, the status ET054 Idle speed regulation is "Active", and the idle
speed regulator continually positions the motorised throttle to maintain the engine speed at its idle reference value.
The motorised throttle opening ratio necessary to comply with the speed setpoint is then given by parameter
PR091 Idle speed regulation theoretical OCR.
The PR090 Idle speed regulation programming value is a stored parameter designed to "program" engine
variations and engine wear and tear for the idle speed regulator. The programming is carried out only when the
engine is idle and warm, and no electrical consumer (air conditioning, fan assembly, power assisted steering) is
operating. Therefore it adjusts slowly.

a. Nominal operation: two operating modes.
High temperature (low and medium load mode):
When the thermostat is not controlled, it opens at a temperature of around 108˚C (compared to 89˚C for a
conventional thermostat). This allows fuel consumption to be reduced at low engine loads due to an increase in the
engine operating temperature (as there is less friction).
Low temperature (high load mode):
When the engine is put under greater stress (high loads, high engine speeds), the computer supplies the resistor
(the thermostat is controlled) to obtain operating temperatures below 108˚C (typically between 75˚C and 90˚C).
When the thermostat is opening as expected, comfort and a suitable engine temperature are obtained.
Too avoid too many transitions, switching from one mode to another is subject to time delays (a few seconds to
switch from high temperature
→ low temperature mode and several minutes to switch from low temperature → high
temperature mode).
b. Defect operation: forcing of low temperature mode and/or limitation of engine torque.
Low temperature management is activated.
Low temperature defect mode is used when one of the following faults is present and stored. Defect mode is reset to
0 using the On/Off key. Note:
The engine management computer automatically controls the thermostat in certain conditions, with the
aim of protecting the engine:
–External temperature greater than approximately 30˚C,
–Recognition of accelerator pedal being fully depressed.
If there is a short circuit to earth or an open circuit on the thermostat (for example: a connector
disconnected, DF893 Controlled coolant thermostat circuit in CO: Open circuit), engine performance is
limited to protect the engine.
IMPORTANT:
–It is essential to follow the new procedure for bleeding the cooling circuit (see MR 392 and 385,
Mechanical systems, CLIO III and MODUS, 19A Cooling, Cooling circuit: Bleeding), to prevent major
overheating of the catalytic converter. This new procedure is applicable to D4F engines with
SIEMENS injection.
–Do not inverse the connections of the temperature sensor and the thermostat control when
dismantling or carrying out electrical tests (foolproofing by colour of connections).

temperature.
Following this sequence of operations, a single authentication attempt is authorised. If this fails again, repeat the
sequence of operations described above.
If the engine management computer still fails to unlock, contact the Techline.

STOREDACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SIGNAL
1.DEF: Signal incoherent
NOTESConditions for applying the fault finding procedure to stored faults:
If the customer complains of intermittent faults typical of defect mode type 3
(no accelerator pedal, cruise control or speed limiter), and that the ESP indicator
light comes on but the injection system displays no present faults, apply this fault
finding procedure.
Special notes:
This fault finding procedure enables an accelerator pedal mechanical seizure type fault
to be displayed whilst the pedal is depressed (when the driver's foot is lifted, the pedal
position remains the same). In this case, the driver will brake.
This program enables an inconsistency in the driver's behaviour, such as the brake
pedal and accelerator being depressed simultaneously to be detected (but enables
heel/toe points and left foot braking to be performed without displaying a fault).
There are two possible cases:
1. The fault finding procedure detects constant acceleration then braking with the
acceleration still maintained => change to reversible type 3 defect mode (see
System operation) which no longer recognises the accelerator pedal => warning
light does not come on, fault is not stored. If the accelerator pedal changes position
before the end of a time delay (approximately 31 seconds), it exits defect mode
and returns to normal mode.
2. If the accelerator pedal does not change position for the entire time delay
(approximately 31 seconds), it goes irreversibly into defect mode (requires the
ignition to be switched off to exit it). The warning light comes on and the fault is
stored. This fault finding procedure has no relation with the throttle position.
An accelerator fault (locking, for example) is needed to show the stored fault.
Use the Wiring Diagrams Technical Note for NEW TWINGO, E33, CLIO III,
or MODUS.
